Reported event: an event regarding loosening involving an unknown mrh baseplate was reported.The event was not confirmed.Method & results: product evaluation and results: the reported device was not returned however a photograph was provided for review.The photo presented a baseplate, stem and insert in an assembly form.There is excessive tissue / cement on the back of the baseplate.Nothing else remarkable can be identified based on the photo.Clinician review: a review of the provided medical information by a clinical consultant indicated: this inquiry reports the failure of a gmrs tibial component about 3 years postop.I cannot confirm that this event took place since there were no office notes, no preop xrays and no operation reports regarding the possible root cause of this event, i cannot determine it with certainty.If this took place causes of loosening are multifactorial including surgical factors, patient activity, and patient¿s size and activity factors.Product history review: could not be performed as the device lot details were not provided.Complaint history review: could not be performed as the device lot details were not provided.Conclusions: it was reported that the patient's knee was revised due to a loose mrh tibial component.The exact cause of the event could not be determined because insufficient information was provided.Further information such as pathology reports, pre- and post-operative x-rays and the primary operative report as well as patient history and follow-up notes are needed to complete the investigation for determining root cause.No further investigation for this event is possible at this time.If devices and/or additional information become available to indicate further evaluation is warranted, this record will be reopened.
